As the novel coronavirus continues to impact business and government operations across the world, both the public and private sectors are seeking solutions to mitigate the risk of exposure to this pathogen to help safeguard the health of their employees and visitors as well as minimize potential impacts on their operations. All organizations are being faced with the challenge of how to protect employees and visitors from disease transmission while striving to welcome people back into a safe environment. As EHS professionals, we have a unique ability to help others to assess this unique situation from health, human behavior and engineering perspectives so that facilities can re-open or remain open with confidence.

Jobsite Safety Accountability Supervisor (JSAS) A team of experts has been providing COVID-19 safety services in the Bay Area of Northern California to help large construction projects move forward and provide work environments that minimize the risk of virus transmission among workers in the construction trades. The City of Berkeley and multiple other counties have implemented specific protocols for large sites that require a written plan to address risks of COVID-19 exposure to employees and steps taken to minimize these risks. As a third-party jobsite, JSAS personnel audits these plans for compliance with local health orders and verifies the proper execution of mitigation measures on site through frequent site visits. These visits provide reassurance to contractors and employers that they are implementing proper controls to limit the spread of the virus while on site.
